★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Bill Richards · Sep 2025

I am absolutely appalled about how downhill this establishment has gone under new ownership. The most recent time I ordered food here my burger was completely pink in the middle, and I found multiple hairs in my cup of ranch when I went up to the counter to speak to the manager there was nobody but kids working here and nobody can leave me with a for sure answer as of why my food was not cooked all the way through.

A true gem in our town! This ice cream shop offers an incredible variety of dessert options—from classic cones and sundaes to unique flavor combinations you won’t find anywhere else. My personal favorite? The Monster Cookie blend—absolute perfection! There’s something for everyone, and it’s the perfect stop for a sweet treat after a game or on a summer night. What makes it even better is the heart behind the business. The owner goes out of their way to support our local high school athletes and frequently partners with other small businesses in the area. You can tell they genuinely care about the community. The shop is also filled with touches of local history and nostalgia, which makes every visit feel special. It’s more than just ice cream—it’s a celebration of hometown pride. Highly re

I'd give it a fiver if they had straight rhubarb pie. Good breaded tenderloins, and ice cream treats. Clean...Kind staff. The cheeseburger and tots are great! Always bring a cooler for taking home pints of ice cream. Mmmm.
